Telexploration: How video game technologies can take NASA to
the next level

\n\n

How would you like to swim in the oceans of Europa? What would it feel
like to climb Mount Olympus on Mars? Is it possible for all of us to expe
rience these journeys together? The goal of the Telexploration project is
to make us better explorers by building immersive environments that feel l
ike we are really there. By drawing together technologies from sources as
unlikely as the video game industry and advancing the state of the art in
human-system interaction\, we are working towards low-cost “holodecks”
- not only for every NASA mission scientist\, but for every person who lo
ngs to explore space with us. This presentation will describe our progress
towards these ambitious goals as well as the challenges that are ahead. <
